I'm Joe Devine. Welcome to the Tifo Football Podcast. Today I'm joined by Paul Ansoj to talk about Sir Alex Ferguson.

We discussed Ferguson's relationship with the glazers, the ambiguity surrounding his character and his iconic status.

We also touch on Robin Van Percy, Wayne Rooney and of course David Moyes.

Before we get started, I've got just a couple of announcements to make.

The first is that we are delighted to say that we've been nominated in the Best Online Media

category at the Football Supporters Federation Awards for 2017.

You might remember if you follow our YouTube channel that we posted a video a month ago

begging for votes.

That was for the nomination process.

It is a public vote for the actual award as well.

We're in a very strong category alongside people like David Squires, the excellent Guardian

cartoonist and channels like

Coppin 90. So whilst we're not really expecting to come home with the award, you can still vote

for us if you think that we deserve to. And just to clarify, you may have already voted for us

for the nomination stage. This is the final stage. So if you've already voted, you can vote again. And that'll be great

if you can. I think I've left a link in the description of the podcast. So wherever you should

be listening to, you should be able to find it. It only takes 30 seconds or so. And also,

there's a bunch of other categories you can choose to vote for also. So that could be fun for you.

Secondly, our launch date for the new website and our name change to TIFO has been delayed

ever so slightly.

It's still happening in November, but a little bit later on in the month now.

So keep an eye out for that.
